I agree with you, and although I don't really care for Ratt and Great White, I would much rather see them selling 4 million records than I would artists like Korn or Eminem..
wankers like Eminem have no real talent, but it seems that's what the major labels are promoting so what can you really do....at the end of the day all we can really do is not buy that rubbish and instead spend our money on high quality AOR and Melodic Hard Rock cds...
By the way...the latest Ratt album has only sold 40,000 so far....
Cheers

I put off buying Ratt's most recent cd, due to so-so reviews. I saw this cd in the used section, decided to buy it....and after 6 or 7 listens, I love it.
The 1st song, Over the Edge, is a KILLER. Warren's guitar playing is top notch, as is the rest of the musicianship. The usual Ratt hooks are there in the vocals...overall this cd shows a more modern sound for the band. Its nice to hear a band rock out again. Its too bad they broke up, as talented as they are.
Its too bad when bands like Ratt & Great White struggle to sell 100,000 cds while jerkwads such as Enimem (Enema) sell 4 million plus. Real sad.
